If your big, blended or extended family is feeling the S.Q.U.E.E.Z.E then this could be the solution.
This is a seriously big, much-loved family home.
Custom-built by Content Living in 2004 for a family who also wanted to run a business from home, 17 Forkleaf Bend offers approximately 257m² of living on a substantial 772m² block.
The home has been genuinely adored by its owners. It is comfortable, character-filled and incredibly versatile, with a floorplan that works equally well for a large or multigenerational family.
5 Bed | 2 Bath | Lounge | Dining | Family | Sunken Games/Theatre | Study | Separate Treatment Room/Office | Powder Room | Pool | Outdoor Entertaining | Double Garage | Approx. 257m² Living | 772m²
Beyond the gated frontage, a broad verandah leads to the entry and the first of several separate zones.
The lounge and adjoining dining room sit towards the front of the home, with timber look flooring and plenty of natural light.
Also positioned at the front, the primary bedroom is heightened by 32 course ceilings and a large walk-in robe. The ensuite has dual access to the powder room, so guests wont need to invade your privacy.
Continue through and the scale of the home becomes apparent.
High ceilings add to the sense of space in the substantial family and casual meals area, where family friendly flooring and a wood fire create a warm, relaxed hub for everyday living.
The adjoining kitchen is large enough for the entire family to pitch in and help with meal prep and has plenty of bench and cupboard space, a corner pantry, four-burner Westinghouse electric hotplate, 600mm Fisher & Paykel oven and Bosch dishwasher.
French doors enclose the sunken games/theatre, providing another properly separate living area with enough room to adapt as your family's needs change.
There is also an enclosed study for homework, household admin or working from home.
The minor bedroom wing includes four big bedrooms, all with robes and plantation shutters. One also has its own walk-in robe.
The family bathroom has a practical three-way arrangement with a large vanity, hobless glass framed dual-head rain shower and a bath.
The enclosed laundry includes storage and direct outdoor access.
Then there is the part that sets this home apart.
A separate treatment room or office has its own external entry and an adjoining powder room. Designed for a home-based business, it allows clients to come and go without entering the main living areas.
It could work equally well for extended family, older children, regular guests or anyone needing a private space away from the main household. There is a 3rd toilet to this area.
Outside, the large Balinese style gazebo is ready for family lunches, celebrations and long afternoons by the glass-fenced saltwater pool.
Ready to enjoy the mini orchard? Olive, mulberry, pomegranate, lime, lemon, apple, nectarine and peach trees create quite the backyard fruit bowl, with reticulation helping to keep everything going.
Additional features include Fujitsu ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning, 6.6kW solar panels with an approximately 13.5kW battery, a security system and camera to the double garage.
Grandis Primary School, St John Paul II Catholic Primary School and Joseph Banks Secondary College are all nearby, along with the supermarkets, cafés, medical services and specialty stores at Banksia Grove Village.
Discovery Park, Pitstop Playground, local walking trails and sporting facilities are also within easy reach, while Joondalup City Centre and the Mitchell Freeway are approximately 7km away.
This is not a small home pretending to be big. It is the real deal.
Big block. Big floorplan. Plenty of separate spaces and possibilities for family life, work and play.
A truly scrumptious Whopper with the LOT.
